Tackle it Tuesday: in the car.

So, here we are in St. Louis, visiting our fabulous relatives: Uncle Scott and Aunt Elizabeth and our bosom friends/ cousins: Jon Scott and Katie. While everyone is relaxing with an action-packed movie next door, I thought I’d get a little tackle blog in.
The trip was fun and uneventful–only five hours. We stopped at a Subway for lunch. Did you know that our family eats five foot longs? I guess we were hungry.
Somehow, I think the mere presence of our big family makes the servers a little nervous.
I may have befuddled my “sandwich artist” when I asked him to put olives and peppers on 2/3 of the sub. He proceeded to put the items on what looked like 1/3. So, I corrected him and said 2/3 not 1/3.
And then he said, “how about half?”
Realizing that he had no idea what 2/3 of a sub was, I said, “it’s a little more than half.
It ended up being 5/8 or so. Really. Next time I’ll get it right: I’ll ask for 9/16!!
I did some knitting on the way here. This is project I started TWO years ago. I think I gave up when I ran out of yarn.

Here is the sweater sleeve that I finished in the car. Yeah!!
